In the early Zhou Dynasty, the area became the state of Yan (鄢國).[1][2]
In the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the area became known as Yan Yi (鄢邑) after the destruction of the state of Yan under Zheng (鄭武公)[1][2] in the early part of the reign of King Ping of Zhou (after 770 BC).[5]
In the fifth month of 722 BC, Duke Zhuang of Zheng defeated his younger brother Gongshu Duan (共叔段) north of present-day Yanling County.[1][2][6][7]
The famous Battle of Yanling (575 BC) took place in Yanling County.
Yanling County was established during the Western Han dynasty in the year 201 BC.[1][2][8]
